In the show "3 Body Problem" (I haven't read the book) the statement was made **'our civilization is no longer capable of solving its own problems'**. Would you agree? in c/[email protected]

My area also has high humidity, 12°C is indeed freezing. We add lots of layers...

Actually no. When it's that hot, I leave it on from afternoon / evening till before sleep. It was a couple of hours.

When it's 40℃ outside, I set my AC to around 30 too.

To save energy, I set my AC at 28℃ in the summer, for a couple of hours in the afternoon. In the winter if my room temperature wasn't below 8℃ I don't use heating. Otherwise I set it to 12℃.

Apparently I don't understand the very energy consuming 20℃ summers/winters.

What's the stupidest rule your school ever enforced? in c/[email protected]

It's not enforced by my schools, but when I was little, speaking local languages at school was forbidden. It's getting better now, but at that time, only the official language was allowed.

Another rule was boys weren't allowed to wear longer hairs. If the hairline was below the ears, they would be asked to cut it shorter. From time to time, boys from my class were forced to cut their hair during classes with the company of a teacher.
